Ghost Band Ugly Christmas Sweater Black Knitted Pullover Papa Nihil Swedish Metal Holiday Jumper With Skulls Crosses Winter Festive Apparel

This Ghost band ugly Christmas sweater features Papa Nihil, the elderly “demonic anti-pope” character who made his dramatic live debut on September 30, 2017, at Gothenburg’s Liseberg venue when he replaced Papa Emeritus III as Ghost’s ceremonial anointer, becoming a beloved figure in the Swedish theatrical rock band’s elaborate mythology and later appearing as a young frontman in the 1960s-set “Kiss the Go-Goat” music video while also showcasing his saxophone skills during live performances. The black knitted pullover design incorporates skulls and crosses motifs that reflect Ghost’s signature Satanic priest imagery and occult aesthetic, which has defined the Grammy-winning band’s visual identity since their formation by mastermind Tobias Forge, who performs as the lead vocalist behind various Papa Emeritus personas while accompanied by anonymous “Nameless Ghouls” instrumentalists. Ghost has achieved extraordinary success with nearly 10 billion streams and multiple chart-topping albums including Infestissumam (2013) which reached #1 in Sweden and won the Grammis Award for Best Hard Rock/Metal Album, Meliora (2015), Prequelle (2018) which earned a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Album, Impera (2022) which debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200 and #1 in Sweden, Germany, and Finland, and their sixth studio album Skeletá (2025) which became their first #1 on the US Billboard 200 chart. The band won the Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance in 2016 for their haunting single “Cirice” from Meliora, with subsequent nominations for “Call Me Little Sunshine” (2023) from Impera and “Phantom of the Opera” (2024), while achieving their first platinum certification in September 2023 for the breakout hit “Mary On A Cross” from the Seven Inches of Satanic Panic EP featuring Papa Nihil’s 1960s persona. Ghost’s massive 2025 world tour includes 55+ shows across the U.S., Europe, UK, and Mexico, with the European leg kicking off April 15 in Manchester and concluding May 24 in Oslo, followed by North American dates including a July 17 performance at Rocket Arena, marking the band’s first major outing since the triumphant RE-IMPERATOUR 2023 that concluded with sold-out shows at Los Angeles’s Kia Forum—performances immortalized in their record-breaking debut feature film announced in October 2023. This officially licensed winter festive apparel makes an essential holiday jumper gift for Ghost fans who appreciate the band’s theatrical blend of heavy metal, progressive rock, and pop sensibilities featuring hits like “Square Hammer,” “Dance Macabre,” “Spillways,” and “Rats” that have dominated Active Rock radio while Papa Nihil’s character represents the comedic relief and nostalgic element within Ghost’s elaborate lore about a Satanic clergy.
